    What Clients See at the Top of Your Proposal

    QuickEstimate doesn't use a separate cover page. Here's what the proposal header shows and where each detail comes from.

    Your Proposal's First Impression

    Instead of a separate cover page, every QuickEstimate proposal opens with a header that introduces your business, the client and the job.

    Everything in it comes from your Business Settings and the estimate itself, so it fills in automatically.

    What the Header Shows

    Your business

    Your logo, company name, phone number and address, plus the name of the team member preparing the proposal (shown as Consultant).

    Set these in Management → Business Settings: step 1 (Details) and step 2 (Branding → Company Logo).

    Job details

    The sales date, Purchase Order number, department and install date, when you've entered them in the estimate builder.

    Proposal To

    The client's name, address and phone numbers from the Client step of the estimate builder.

    Location Site

    The site contact and address, if the work is at a different address from the client's.

    Proposal title and scope

    The Proposal Name, followed by the description of the work from the Description step.

    Making It Look Like Your Business

    1

    Upload your logo

    Management → Business Settings → step 2, Branding → Company Logo.

    2

    Pick your Brand Colour

    Also in step 2. It colours section headings and buttons on the proposal (paid plans).

    3

    Rename headings

    Step 3, Labels & Templates → PDF / Print Titles lets you rename headings such as Work To Be Performed and Install Date.

    4

    Write a strong description

    The Description step is the first thing your client reads about the job. Use it to explain the scope in plain words.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I add a separate cover page or cover letter?

    No. Use the Message in the Send Proposal email for a personal note, and the Description step for the job overview.

    Can I choose a cover style or background photo?

    No. Every proposal uses the same clean layout with your logo and brand colour.

    Does the PDF have the same header?

    A similar one. The PDF starts with your logo and business details, the date, and who the proposal is prepared for.

    Add your logo and details once, and every proposal opens with them.
